Pros

Great CEO Modern technologies Well known name in the industry (Open Stack, Docker)

Cons

Poor execution Incompetent middle management At some point most of Directors of Engineering were ex-developers without proper expertise and corporate culture. These "directors" were responsible for teams 100+ engineers. Leaders were incompetent. The company has tried to hire architects experts, but they never have voice and authority to make impact, loyalty was more important than skills. This killed the engineering organization.

Dear Colleague, I am very sorry to hear about your negative experience while employed at Mirantis. The company has approximately 150 managers and most have a wide range of experience. I have not received this type of feedback in any recent exit interviews, and I would like to schedule a time to speak with you. If you could please email me at ilykov@mirantis.com, I will consider your feedback and take action. We are constantly working to make our management team better and provide them with the most up-to-date training available. We also provide the 15Five platform to facilitate communication between managers and employees. According to the Q1 2022 engagement survey powered by Glint, we have 90 pts with the question "My experience with my manager is positive", that 15 pts above the benchmarks. We would appreciate any feedback to improve the performance of Mirantis. VP of Human Resources Ilia Lykov
